1. Raglan luxury tent with spa (from USD 189)
Set on a rural farm just eight minutes from Raglan, this luxury tent is the perfect introduction to Kiwi hospitality. The tent, unbelievably, has two bedrooms, a drawing-room, a modern bathroom, and even a kitchenette. The bedrooms are both outfitted with queen-sized beds, while the drawing room features a cozy sofa-bed. The kitchen has all the utilities of a non-camping kitchen: a mini-fridge, microwave, pots and pans, as well as a coffee maker, and other cooking basics. However, some of the best features of the tent lie outside in the garden area. It features a hot tub to relax under the stars, a fire pit and seating area to warm yourself, and even a spa pool. The rolling green plains of the rural farm and the hills just beyond set the perfect backdrop to a great glamping experience.

Just a 10-minute drive away from the main town of Raglan and its famous beaches, this yurt is the perfect off-grid getaway. The yurt is located on a beautiful farm framed by Mt. Karioi on one side and the blue waters of the Tasman Sea on the other. The yurt itself is fitted with a wood-burning stove, which keeps it extremely warm even during the winter months. It is furnished with a cozy double bed, rustic furniture, and soft carpets to keep you warm. Moreover, the yurt has a self-contained kitchen. The entire structure works on solar energy, so the kitchen has a fridge and a gas stove. Guests also have access to a BBQ grill and picnic table. There’s also a separate shower block with a chemical toilet and handbasin. Since the farm also hosts a small medley of animals, you can spend your time watching the ducks and hens playing around or help with feeding them!
